Ooh, I had remembered that fic from when you recced it to me a while ago, but had either forgotten or failed to appreciate that it was a dinosaur AU! How exciting :D

And 'Hester' sounds fascinating, I love the idea of the story centred on a bank (what can I say, I am the daughter of two accountants...)

It is a very interesting setting! And Oliphant makes the most of it for developing characters and relationships (Catherine working and succeeding in a position very unusual for a nineteenth-century woman; Edward being drawn to the allure of stock market gambling; Hester's views on the bank at the end...).
